not final.
Vetel going down 10 places
Barrichello going down 5
and Timo might get penalized.

Race SUSPENDED =(

[Tony717]

I'm watching right now

[Tony717]

The race has been stopped. Button wins, Heidfield and Glock complete the podium.

[niwad25]

very nice race indeed for the half start & a little disappointment with the half end

[Tijuana]

It seemed like Ferrari made a lot of bad decisions this weekend. First Massa in qualifying, then sending Kimi out on full wets before it really started raining. I can't believe Toyota was the only team smart enough to send a driver out on intermediates, but kudos to them. Congrats to Button and Brawn, they managed to do enough right at the end to keep their car out in front.

[BMWJZ4]

what a crazy race..i was so frustrated when kubica's car stalled out,and then went on fire. I'm happy for Heidfeld though. Why most teams went right to full wets I don't know.

[rzm3]

Nick Heidfield's a lucky bastard... "1 stop" strategy... lol

[EINSER M]

blame the weatherman for the wull wets. toyota put on the inter becoz they dont believe in the weatheman ha ha ha h a

[FrankoQ]

some nice passing action

i blame bernie to start the race at 5pm local....
if the race started at 5:30....the rain will be the final few laps and will be really exciting....and we wun be worry about the race ends at 7pm local where its gonna go dark....

[FStop7]

that was a pretty horrible race. why is there even a race scheduled for malaysia during monsoon season?

its typically the second race in the season...but Bernie pushed the race from 2pm local time to 5pm local to make sure the European viewers are in prime time hours....thus the odd late afternoon race.....
and this time got caught in the regular rain hours in south east asia...around 4pm-6pm....

[1BMW4fun]

Not a very exciting race. Ferrari needs to do some catching up, especially Massa if he wants that tittle this yr. Is it me or Mercedes is on alot of teams this year. You got :

McLaren-Mercedes
Brawn-Mercedes
ForceIndia-Mercedes

the rules only allow an engine manufacturer to supply two teams, and they had to get special dispensation to supply Brawn this year.

More Kimi having ice cream...
